City / Nightlife The Nightlife Guy
Posted by Dominic Holden on Thu, Jul 23, 2009 at 10:07 AM
In The Stranger's conference room last Friday, four men who are fighting over one city council seat tried to set themselves apart from one another: Mike O'Brien, Rusty Williams, Robert Rosencrantz, and David Miller. Two others in the race who are also vying for the seat Richard McIver is vacating at the end of this year weren't there: Jordan Royer was sick and Bobby Forch said this week that he no-showed because, "I think I was sick. I can't remember."
We asked them to address our primary interest: drinking at night (and most mornings). Whereas Rosencrantz said, "I don't go out," and added that he believed in giving neighborhoods more authority over where nightlife can and cannot go—yikes—Miller identified a cadre of his supporters who work in the nightlife industry. He supports amending the existing noise ordinance to protect existing clubs from persnickety new neighbors—adding a grandfather clause to allow venues to continue, unpenalized, even if a residential building goes up within earshot (currently the existence of new building can make an old club illegal).
But Miller's real christening in the race came this week: The Seattle Nightlife & Music Association, a leading nightlife advocacy voice in the city, endorsed him. He's also got the blessing of David Meinert, Marcus Charles, Michael Meckling, and Steven Severin.
Sure, this makes Miller groovier than Rosencrantz, but does it give him any advantage? I'd love to think that there is an army of young, drinky folks out there who vote in primaries—who even know we're voting next month—but I wouldn't bet my lunch on it. I'd expect most of them will wake up the next day, having forgotten all about it, and say, "I think I was sick. I can't remember" or something like that. According to a SurveyUSA poll last month, 76 percent of likely voters in next month's primary are 35 years or older—not exactly the nightlife set. Only 24 percent are between 18 and 34. However, with this many candidates in the race, Miller may be able to combine his support from neighborhood types—he was the past president of the past President of the Maple Leaf Community Council—and the "nightlife voters" (however small their ranks) to guarantee a spot on the November ballot.

Nightlife Um, This Wasn't on the Rider
Posted by Dave Segal on Fri, Jul 10, 2009 at 5:35 PM
Last night at the Blue Moon Tavern, a local metal band, while loading out, nearly "liberated" a beloved painting that was hanging behind the stage. The venue's talent booker was not amused.

Nightlife And Now for Something Completely Different...
Posted by David Schmader on Sun, Jun 21, 2009 at 2:42 PM
Hey Stranger,Since so many Slog stories highlight (rightly) Christians being assholes to the glbtq community, why don't you give the kind Queer Episcopalians (who Driscoll hates, by the way) a Slog shoutout for hosting the city's first (to my knowledge?) Pride Eucharist and Party tonight, June 21 from 7 - 10:30 pm at Skinner Auditorium at St. Mark's Cathedral? We have DJ Ponyboy, a bunch of men in dresses, and the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Peace,
Tim Mathis
Community Catalyst
Episcopal Diocese of Olympia
Dear Tim: Your wish is my command.
Also, I hope when guests enter the party, they're given euchawristbands. Baddum ching.

Chow / Nightlife New in Restaurant/Bars!
Posted by Bethany Jean Clement on Fri, Jun 12, 2009 at 12:51 PM
• Azzurri is Fremont's new wine and soccer bar that, as of last week, was only serving two kinds of wine and, to be frank, needed the attention of a broom. Also, the panini are not that good. Yet it is kind of a great place! Find out why over here.
• The Feedback Lounge in West Seattle is rock 'n' roll-themed. Food is pub grub plus. They have "the SUNNDECK, a 40-foot long outdoor lounge area," and a music-related happy hour from 4 to 6 p.m. every day. Today is AC/DC “high voltage” Friday. Wear rubber-soled shoes.
• The Tiger Lounge in Georgetown is "Seattle's only go-go bar," which means lava lamps and beaded curtains. Outside, there is a fire pit, which may or may not be go-go in some way. Pub grub and gourmet pizzas are available.
• Sinners and Saints is right near Azzurri in Fremont. Intriguing detail: Goldfish races are occasionally held in an upside-down, water-filled fluorescent light fixture (has PETA found out yet?). Food is Spanish—tapas, paella.
• Hudson in Georgetown is brought to you by the Smarty Pants people and has homestyle Southern food.
• Captain Blacks on Capitol Hill is already famous for its chicken and waffles (it's boneless kosher breast meat, all sliced up for you, which you may find to be suboptimal, and it costs $11, but it's pretty damn good). There are two outdoor decks, front and back. The Stranger has recently learned that the apostrophe in "Blacks" was lost at sea.
• Snoose Junction Part Dieu is the Ballard pizzeria's new Greenwood outlet. Lots of video games, and LPs you can choose from for them to play upstairs in the bar. (Did they mean Part Deux?)
Enjoy the weekend!

Nightlife "I noticed that the people getting their pictures taken with her were more than half female, and more than half of them were seriously hot..."
Posted by Christopher Frizzelle on Fri, May 29, 2009 at 4:48 PM
That's one of the comments on this week's Bar Exam about Mary Kay Letourneau's new club night. It still boggles the mind that she and her ex-student (1) ever got together in the first place; (2) remain together; and (3) have a club night in Pioneer Square. Other commenters are divided up into the hats-off-to-them camp and the it's-all-so-wrong camp.

Nightlife Re-bar Happy Hour?
Posted by Dan Savage on Thu, May 28, 2009 at 4:35 PM
Apparently there's some sort of happy hour thing at Re-bar today—which doesn't usually open this early—and it involves some sort of food or something. That's all I know.
